I watched my Dad die at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas. It was awful. I wanted to share a bit about the experience in hopes that other people can have better experiences. MD Anderson touts itself as “the Best Cancer Center in the World.” But it is not. Dad was failed by Dr. Ashish Kamat and his entire team. Worst of all by his PA, Robert Ramage. I implore other families to think twice before entrusting your loved ones to this team’s care. But there were others who are culpable. The entire culture of this hospital is “cancerous.” Over an agonizing year of treatment and mistreatment, a catastrophic failure in care at the hands of MD Anderson cost my Dad his life. That failure began in November of 2023, and culminated with Dad’s shocking death in a cramped, post-opp room on the 5th floor of your Oncology building, just a few weeks short of his birthday. Dad would have been 79 this past New Years Day. Dad deserved so much better. He truly was the most likeable, loveable person. Dad’s death was an ugly scene. Something I don’t wish on anyone. Watching someone you love suddenly taken from you is traumatic enough. But compounding that pain by witnessing a complete breakdown in procedure, a complete deficit of know-how, and a complete absence of urgency from the MD Anderson Staff was unconscionable. The lack of training, professionalism, and empathy on display at MD Anderson that Tuesday morning was shocking. And heartbreaking. But it was consistent with that my Dad and our family experienced over the past 12 months. I wrote a letter to Peter Pisters, which you can find at a new website my family and I created, called patientsforchange.com. Please read it and please help us do all we can to ensure every patient is treated like family. Sending prayers and love to you all. 🙏❤️

This is not the great hospital it once was. They are arrogant and lack respect for their patients. We will be going somewhere were we can set appointments on our schedule. We waited for 30 minutes past our appointment time before walking out. This was our second appointment with Dr. Anne Tsao who is routinely 2 hours behind schedule. I would encourage more to walk. Maybe it will bring MD Anderson’s hubris into check.

When you come here long enough you will see the other side of it. The quality have going down by those bad apples. Some nurses and staffs have very bad attatue toward to you and you can feel that they don't care about you at all. And some are refuses to helping patients feel comfortable while on treatments.

Horrible. Wanted to do your big time testing instead of listening to the complaints of a patient. Never the first PET scan. Big money procedures first. Medicare pay attention. They ripping you off. Horrible people. Horrible. Personal care more like Personal agendas.

Diagnosed with breast cancer in 2019. Immediately called and scheduled a consult. I was ordered to undergo a repeat mammogram and an ultrasound which confirmed diagnosis from my local physician. Literally from the first minute of doing my mammogram, I KNEW I had made the right decision. My treatment team were awesome!! I could not be more pleased. I have completed chemotherapy and recently had a mastectomy and will undergo reconstruction surgery later in the year, following radiation. From the doctors, nurses, physicians assistants, anesthetists and to the people who park my car, I have never been treated more kind. Thank you MD Anderson!! And thank you God for your healing!

We spent seven years enduring not only my husband’s cancer diagnosis, but also the horrific lack of continuity and communication that is extremely prevalent at MD Anderson. And to add insult to injury, no one is held accountable for this ignorance. They all just talk about each other, you know as good cop, bad cop. Be very careful when approaching this facility for your cancer needs. Record every word spoken, because it will change minute to minute, with ZERO recollection from the source that spoke it. It’s a scary place, so don’t go in there alone, have a patient advocate with you, and a caregiver that will be your extra set of eyes and ears. There are many many stories like mine, and I promise you, protect yourself. They are a very poorly managed business with an incredibly broken system. Pay attention, because they aren’t.

Simply an incredible experience at MDA. The people, the attention to detail, the professionalism, the facilities and the list goes on and on.There’s a reason they’re rated No. 1.If you or a loved one needs medical care for cancer, look no further. This is the destination of your hopes and prayers.
